About Skipper

Meet Skipper! If you’re after a sporty and energetic companion, look no further. Skipper has been with Corridor Rescue in Houston, Texas, for over two years now. She came in with trauma to her front leg, which has since led to an amputation, but she has fully healed and is eager to share her playful personality. Sporting her adorable black and white coat, Skipper loves to play fetch and is perfect for those who enjoy an active lifestyle. Despite her energetic nature, she also has a cuddly side that comes out when she’s ready to relax. Skipper is learning basic commands like sit and down, and while she still needs some leash training, she responds well to treats and commands with a head halter. It’s important to note that Skipper does not get along with other dogs or cats, so she will thrive best as the only pet in a home. While she may take a little time to warm up to new people, a few treats and a ball will win her over. Now, Skipper is ready for her forever home where she can find peace and companionship after her healing journey. Are you the one? Your new best friend is just one click away.
